Keep getting hit with broadcasts from my ISP.  So I would like to not
see these in the alerts anymore. And, sometimes when a user accesses our
file server (legit user), snort reports: [1:2102:1] NETBIOS SMB
SMB_COM_TRANSACTION Max Data Count of 0 DOS Attempt [**].  Would like to
ignore all internal traffic and broadcasts from ISP.

In the faqs, it said to write pass rules and add the hosts to the
portscan-ignorehosts list . Then to call snort with the -o option to
activate the pass rules. Can anyone elaborate on this?
